Plow Shoe Adjustment
This plow is equipped with the ability to utilize four (4) plow
shoes. Two plow shoes are located at the outboard end of
each wing, and two plow shoes are located on the inboard
section of each wing, close to the center tower.
Adjust the plow shoes as follows:
1. Raise plow to full up position.
2. Support blade with a jack.
3. Turn vehicle ignition switch and plow control OFF and
apply emergency brake.
4. Adjust shoe assemblies by removing shoe mounting
lynch pin and adding or subtracting washers on the top or
bottom of the shoe-mounting bracket. (See Figure 1-37.)
Figure 1-37
5. After the disk shoe position is properly adjusted place
remaining washer on the shoe stem - above the disk
shoe mounting bracket and below the retaining lynch pin
- to remove all up and down movement of the disk shoe
in the bracket. Failure to do so will result in excessive
wear of the holes in mounting bracket or bending of the
disk shoe stem.
IMPORTANT:
Snap lynch pin ring over so that it
contacts the pin. If ring does not contact lynch pin,
rotate the pin and reverse the direction of the ring. If
the ring does not contact the pin it is not locked and
could fall out.
Trip Spring Adjustment
Check the plow shoe adjustment as follows:
1. Level the tower and wings. (See "Blade Level
2. Check gap on springs with a feeler gauge. The gap
between two or more coils should be .015" (A 3x5
postcard is approximately .015" thick). (See Figure 1-38.)
Figure 1-38
If the gap needs adjustment:
a. Loosen the bottom nut on the spring eye bolt(s).
b. Tighten or loosen the top nut until the correct
tension is reached, by measuring with a feeler
gauge.
c. Tighten the bottom nut(s) on all spring eye bolts.
WARNING
Keep hands and feet clear of wings and center
section when setting blocking and lowering
plow. Moving or falling assemblies could result
in serious injury.
FAILURE TO HEED CAN RESULT IN INJURY
OR DEATH.
